Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an assembly arrangement of a heat exchanger for installation in the housing of an air conditioning system of a motor vehicle.
  • the assembly assembly comprises a heat exchanger whose outer shape is defined by an air inlet side, an air outlet side parallel thereto and a laterally peripheral boundary, and a sealing assembly, by means of which the lateral boundary of the heat exchanger airtight and vibration isolation installed in an air duct of the housing of the air conditioner is.
  • the present invention further relates to a method of assembling an automotive air conditioning system having such an assembly arrangement.
  • heat exchangers For motor vehicle air conditioners, various types of heat exchangers are installed, for example evaporators and condensers of a refrigerant circuit, which can be used for a cooling operation, heat pump operation and / or dehumidification operation.
  • fluid-based heat exchangers are known. These include, for example, heating heat exchanger, which are flowed through by the cooling water of the engine, or cooling heat exchanger, which are flowed through in a secondary run of a cooled, for example, water-based coolant, which in turn is in heat exchanging contact with a refrigerant primary circuit.
  • the one-piece and all-round casing makes it possible to provide the peripheral edge of the assembly assembly already in one piece to the physical shape of the air duct in the housing of the air conditioner. This not only allows easy installation, but also reduces possible adjustments for hermetically sealing the assembly assembly to the air duct. Results from previous developments for the seal and vibration decoupling may eventually be reused.
  • the part number can be reduced by the one-piece outer part, which simplifies the handling during manufacture and pre-assembly.
  • the full meaning of the invention means that the heat exchanger is surrounded by the sealing assembly along the lateral boundary.
  • the supply lines to or the discharges from the heat exchanger locally break the seal assembly hole-like or slit-like.
  • the seal assembly comprises a standard frame in which the heat exchanger is enclosed by injection molding.
  • the injection is a simple process step, which can be dispensed with further manual assembly steps to complete the sealed in the seal assembly and vibration-insulated heat exchanger. As a further step, it only requires the fitting of the assembly assembly thus obtained in the air duct.
  • the outer part of the sealing assembly is a folding and folding frame having mutually movable legs.
  • the frame may for example consist of four straight legs for each edge of the heat exchanger, all legs are movable against each other. Alternatively, however, only one or two of the legs may be straight and the remaining part may be designed to be rigid as an L-shaped or U-shaped leg.
  • This second embodiment allows on the one hand a simple assembly by laying around and folding the frame, on the other hand, if necessary, the frame can be reopened and replaced the sheathed heat exchanger.
  • At least two adjacent legs of the frame may be connected to each other by means of film hinges. This allows a simple hinge formation of the same material.
  • the seal assembly additionally comprises at least one insert which is insertable into the inside of the outer part and in the assembled state is fixedly and tightly arranged between the outer part and the heat exchanger.
  • the previous sealing and vibration decoupling concept can be adopted with respect to the air-conducting duct of the air conditioning system and only the seal and the vibration decoupling from the inside of the frame can be adapted to a new heat exchanger to be used.
  • Such an insert is advantageously made of an elastic material, for example a molded foam.
  • the standard frame or collapsible frame are typically made of a hard, inelastic material, e.g. of polypropylene, but possibly also dimensionally stable but softer materials such. Molded foam can be used.
  • the frames may consist of a combination of different materials, elastic and inelastic elements.
  • the outer portion of the gasket assembly typically has a substantially planar surface so as to conform to the typically even duct walls of the air ducting of the air conditioning system.
  • a flat and smooth surface may be provided to allow the least possible energy-saving insertion into the air duct of the air conditioning.
  • the outer part of the seal assembly has a groove-spring means running along the lateral boundary, which is adapted to a corresponding tongue and groove means in the air-conducting channel of the housing of the air conditioning.
  • the tongue and groove connection can be circumferential or possibly also interrupted.
  • the groove may be provided either in the outside of the seal assembly or in the wall of the air conditioner. It can also be provided two or more parallel tongue and groove connections.
  • a method for assembling an automotive air conditioning system may now comprise the following successive steps: determining a target outer shape of a gasket assembly which is suitable for the airtight and vibration-insulated installation of a heat exchanger with respect to an intended mounting position in an air duct of the housing of an air conditioning. Subsequently, a full enclosing at least the lateral boundary of the heat exchanger with a one-piece gasket assembly and subsequent airtight and vibration-insulated installation of the sheathed with the gasket assembly heat exchanger in the intended installation position of the air duct of the housing of the air conditioner.
  • the full enclosure of the heat exchanger includes the following step: receiving the heat exchanger in a standard frame and enclosing the heat exchanger in the standard frame by injection molding.
